I’ve managed a few little breaks for some fun. My cousin was married on Friday, so we got to hang out for that. Then just this AM, I got to have breakfast with my good friend from Stanford, (and Choate) Linda Nel. Linda was in town, all the way from Basel, Switzerland and wouldn’t you know it…..staying at a hotel just a mile from where we are. We had a lovely Best Western breakfast before she headed out to pedal her petals ….Linda runs global marketing for Syngenta’s flower business.

Getting ready to head out the door for another ride. Loving it here!!!
